Two powerful explosions rattled central Kabul on Thursday night around 9:50 p.m. local time, sending shockwaves of concern across the Afghan capital.

According to AFP journalists, the blasts were clearly heard in several parts of the city.

Taliban government spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid confirmed that explosions had occurred and said authorities were actively investigating the incident.

In a statement shared on social media, he assured citizens that no casualties or major damage had yet been reported, urging people to remain calm.

Following the blasts, security forces swiftly moved through the streets, inspecting vehicles and tightening checkpoints to ensure public safety.

Residents reported temporary mobile network disruptions in several neighborhoods, while some also claimed to have seen drones in the sky.

The incident took place just hours after Afghanistan’s Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi arrived in India for a two-day diplomatic visit — a significant step in the Taliban administration’s efforts to strengthen international engagement.

While the cause of the explosions remains unclear, the event has reignited fears and memories of instability among Kabul’s residents.

Authorities continue to monitor the situation closely, reassuring the public that maintaining peace and protecting lives remains their top priority.

In these moments of uncertainty, the hope for peace, stability, and safety for the Afghan people stands stronger than ever.
